Odds for Rangers to win World Series set at 17-2

It’s no surprise that Bodog.com has picked the New York Yankees as the favorites to win the World Series, but the Rangers are getting a bit of respect from the oddsmakers as well.

The odds for a Yankees repeat have been set at 11-4, followed by Philadelphia and Tampa Bay at 4-1. The Rangers come in fourth at 17-2.

New York is also favored to win the American League at 3-2 odds, followed by Tampa Bay (11-5), Minnesota (7-2) and the Rangers (4-1). What’s interesting is that Minnesota is favored over Texas to win the AL, but has slightly worse odds (9-1) to win the World Series.

In the National League, Philadelphia is favored at 8-5, followed by Atlanta (7-2), Cincinnati (4-1) and San Francisco (7-1).
